Care Philosophy
Dr. Blake seeks to provide the highest quality, personalized dermatologic care to people from all walks of life. She feels strongly that building respectful and compassionate relationships creates the best possible outcomes, and she enjoys individualizing treatment plans to suit each person's unique goals. 

Dr. Blake served as a CIA officer for 6 years before going to medical school, and she has applied her dedication to service, commitment to excellence, and inquisitive nature equally to her career in dermatology.

She has special interests in skin cancers; dermatologic surgery; humanism in medicine; and the advancement of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, both within and outside of dermatology.

Dr. Blake is a native North Carolinian who is excited to be a Georgia transplant. When she is not working, she enjoys playing volleyball, doing outdoor activities, cooking (and eating) delicious food, listening to all types of music, and spending time with her husband and two sons.
